Best Geotextile Sellers in North East India

Geotextiles are permeable synthetic fabrics laid in or on soil to separate layers, filter water, drain, reinforce and protect. They are made from polypropylene or polyester, which do not rot, so they keep working underground where natural fabrics would biodegrade.

They are not woven from cotton, wool or silk. Non-woven geotextiles are needle-punched felts of synthetic fibres; woven geotextiles are made by weaving polypropylene tapes or yarns. Both let water pass, to different degrees: non-wovens are usually chosen for filtration and drainage, wovens for separation and reinforcement where higher strength and lower elongation are needed.

Best Geotextile Sellers in North East India

Ocean Global, founded in 1998 in New Delhi, manufactures and supplies geotextiles and other geosynthetics for soil-related problems on construction sites. It supplies across the North East: Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim and Tripura.

The geotextile range includes non-woven geotextiles (including polyester continuous filament non-woven) in a range of weights, strengths and filtration properties, and woven geotextiles. Ocean Global states that its non-woven line is produced in ISO-accredited facilities for domestic and export markets.

The North East’s terrain shapes how geotextiles are used there. Hill roads on soft or saturated subgrade need a separation layer so aggregate does not sink into the clay. Cut slopes and landslide-prone stretches need filtration behind gabions and retaining walls. Riverbanks along the Brahmaputra and its tributaries are protected with geotextile filters and geobags. Ocean’s projects in the region includes geotextile for the Kohima-Jessami road in Nagaland and for piling and allied works in Kamrup, Guwahati.

Features

• Ocean Global woven geotextile fabrics are dimensionally stable and spread wheel loads over a wider area of subgrade.
• Ocean Global geotextiles are used for road sub-base separation and reinforcement, filtration and drainage behind roads and retaining walls, slope protection, erosion control structures, ground stabilisation and landscaping.
• Polypropylene and polyester both resist the acids, alkalis and salts found in most soils.
• Ocean Global woven geotextile combines filtration with water permeability.

Besides geotextiles, Ocean Global supplies non-woven fabrics and geomembranes to customers across Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim and Tripura. Its geotextiles go into road works, waste management, reinforced vegetation on slopes and channels, and sub-surface drainage.
